Yesterday, I was exhausted so slept in. But here’s what I know about the projection project:<\/p>\n
This link goes to an Act Blue page with a couple of pix of physical posters<\/a>. I haven’t yet found pix of any projections..<\/p>\n And here’s what I know about No Kings Day: the initial total participation nationwide was estimated at over 7 million. On the spot estimates are kind of rough, so that may change. I did the math, and to meet the three and a half percent rulr, we would need just under 12 million nationwide. Some events did over perform. Theres a little town in Colorado with 500 population which brought out 150 people. That’s 30%, and impressive.<\/p>\n As for the No Kings Day signs – they were many unique, all creative, and some surprising. Meidas Touch complied a Top 40 List, which needs four links because Substack can only post up to 10 images in one article. I found a couple at Steve Schmidt’s The Warning that made me smile – one said “There will be hell toup\u00e9e” and the other “They’re eating the Checks, They’re eating the balances.<\/p>\n Here’s Meidas Touch, in reverse order because it was presented as a countdown. And here’s Steve Schmidt’s<\/a><\/p>\n If you think you have to be brave to go out and protest when you are white – think for a minute about how brave you have to be to go out and protest when you are Black. Or LatinX. The Root shared a list of Black celebrities<\/a> who took part (not all were physically present, and I get that – but f the regime decides it wants to find them, it will.) I expect Jasmine Crockett will surprise no one.<\/p>\n I enjoy Jeff Tiedrich<\/a> quotes when I run into them, but generally don’t go to his site. This time I did for his massive, mostly pictorial report on No Kings – and I don’t think I’ll need to tell you which publication referred me.<\/p>\n This is not a “No Kings” report. Harry Litman<\/a> thinks it might be possible for the State of New York to overturn the commutation of George Santos’s sentence, and I see his point. Unfrotunately, that does not nexesssarily mean it would be easy.<\/p>\n There is less than usual in this about The Week Ahead<\/a>, and more about last week. But the section on Abrego Garcia caught my eye – and hopefully it will illuminate not just this week but also future court cases – depending on how it is decided, which of course reflects and depends on judicial ethics.<\/p>\n
